Preparing our love lock

We stayed on rue du Temple in the Marais, on the corner of which there is a BHV department store, with a window on the street for clefs (keys). We went up to the window and tried to get the keymaker to understand we were looking for a padlock. He revealed a complete selection. When we chose the one we wanted, he handed us a Sharpie marker to write our names on the lock.

 

I guess we weren't the first tourists who came to his window to buy a love lock.

 

This photo was taken by a Spanish-speaking couple we met on the bridge.
